Oc Metricboard

OpenCode TUI sidebar plugin for real-time LLM metrics (TPS / TTFT / token usage) with sub-agent aggregation and per-model breakdown.

Based on opencode-metrics with a streamlined display, sub-agent × model grouping, and production-hardening fixes.

Features

• Real-time TPS — live rolling-window rate while streaming, frozen average on completion (sanity-gated against absurd values)
• TTFT — time to first token, anchored to the user message (not the lazy step.started event)
• Token usage — exact input/output counts from provider (estimated fallback)
• Sub-agent aggregation (scope: "tree") — merges all descendant sub-agent sessions
• Per-model breakdown — one row per distinct model with ×N session count
• Collapsed quick-view — keeps a compact TPS + Session summary while collapsed
• Compact layout — no vertical gaps, no value truncation in narrow sidebars

Installation

From npm (after publishing)

opencode plugin oc-metricboard --global

or add to your config:

{
  "plugin": ["oc-metricboard"]
}

Local development (tarball)

{
  "plugin": ["file:///absolute/path/to/oc-metricboard-0.1.4.tgz"]
}

Restart OpenCode TUI afterwards. Plugins load at TUI startup and are not hot-reloaded.

Configuration

Preferences live in ~/.config/opencode/tui-preferences.jsonc under the oc-metricboard key:

{
  "oc-metricboard": {
    "scope": "tree",              // "current" | "tree" — tree enables sub-agent aggregation
    "section": {
      "enabled": true,
      "collapsed": false,
      "rememberCollapsed": true,
      "label": "MetricBoard"
    },
    "rows": {
      "tps": true,                // TPS row (renamed from "speed")
      "ttft": true,               // Time to first token
      "input": true,              // Input tokens
      "output": true,             // Output tokens
      "cache": false,             // Cache read tokens (off by default)
      "elapsed": true,            // Request elapsed time
      "session": true,            // Session cumulative time
      "modelBreakdown": true      // Per-model rows in tree scope
    }
  }
}

Runtime behavior (refreshIntervalMs, holdDurationMs, estimationRatio, enableLogging) is read from ~/.config/opencode/opencode-bar.json:

{
  "refreshIntervalMs": 200,
  "holdDurationMs": 0,
  "estimationRatio": 4.0,
  "enableLogging": false
}

How it works

The plugin subscribes to OpenCode events:

• session.created/updated/status — builds the session tree
• message.part.delta, session.next.text.delta — live token estimation and TPS window
• session.next.step.started/ended — exact token counts from provider
• message.updated — model attribution and exact counts
• session.idle — request completion

For tree scope it additionally:

1. Queries session.children (SDK client) to build the sub-agent hierarchy
2. Hydrates descendant sessions via the async SDK client (session.messages / session.status)
3. Groups requests by (modelID, providerID), summing tokens and pooling sessions into a ×N count
4. Renders one compact two-line entry per model group

Design notes

• Aggregate cache (150 ms TTL): multiple sidebar rows share one aggregation pass per render tick to avoid redundant O(tree) work and UI jank.
• TTFT anchor: uses the preceding user message's created time — opencode 1.18.x stamps step.started lazily at the first token, which would otherwise collapse TTFT to ~0.
• Timing sanity: negative timestamps (from hydrating messages older than the TUI process) and implausible spans are reported as --, not garbage numbers.
• Hydration bounds: at most 5 attempts per session; a session with no token history is not retried forever.

Development

npm install
npm run build        # tsup bundle check
npm test             # bun test (requires bun)
npm pack --dry-run   # verify publish contents
